TOUR DESCRIPTION
Wake up to the sound of singing birds and the roar of a distant lion while first rays of sunlight turn the dark night into a golden burst of color. Your tour guide will take you through far stretching landscapes and ever-changing sceneries while you can enjoy some good African music. Be on the lookout for wildlife crossing the road and with some luck may have to give ‘right of way’ for some elephants. You arrive at your next destination and you will go on a walk and see many antelopes and some birds. After the excitement, a refreshing siestas at the camp spot with some relaxation under the shades of huge trees. At sunset, this landscape shows its most beautiful side. Make some time to watch this natural wonder of changing colors see how shadows grow longer; listen to the howling of the jackal calling in the ending of another adventurous day in Botswana. Time for dinner around a roaring campfire. Finally, fully satisfied, fall asleep under the starry sky and the sound of chirping crickets knowing that Botswana waits for tomorrow, with more adventures and unforgettable memories.
